Synopsis: Podcast Aggregator (downloader)
Description: Podcasting is a method of publishing radio-like programs on the
Internet. Through podcasting, almost anyone can produce their own
audio program, and publish episodes of it as often or as rarely as
they like.
.
To listen to podcasts, you need a program to download the podcast's
episodes from the Internet. Such a program is called a podcatcher
(or sometimes a podcast aggregator). hpodder is this program.
.
hpodder's features include:
.
Convenient, easy to learn, and fast command-line interface. It's
simple to do simple things, and advanced things are possible.
.
Automatic discovery of feed metadata
.
Full history database for accurate prevention of duplicate
downloads and tracking of new episodes
.
Conversion tools to convert your existing feed list and history from
other applications to hpodder. Supported applications and formats
include: castpodder and ipodder.
.
Most operations can work fully automatically across your entire
podcast database, or they can work manually.
.
Automatic updating of ID3 (v1 and v2) tags based on metadata in the
podcast feed. This important feature is available through iTunes but
is often missed by other podcatchers.
.
hpodder operations can be easily scripted or scheduled using regular
operating system tools.
.
Fully customizable naming scheme for downloaded episodes, including a
name collision detection and workaround algorithm.
.
Automatic support for appending .mp3 extensions to MP3 files that
lack them.
.
Numerous database and history inquiry tools
.
Small, minimalist footprint
.
Power users and developers can interact directly with the embedded
Sqlite3 database used by hpodder. The database has a simple schema
that is developer-friendly.
.
Support for resuming interrupted downloads of podcasts
.
hpodder is SAFE and is designed with data integrity in mind from the
beginning. It should be exceedingly difficult to lose a podcast
episode, even in the event of a power failure.
